Schmilco is Wilco's 10th studio album, and the quickfire follow-up to last year's Star Wars. The record was recorded at the band's Chicago loft and will be released on their own label, dBpm Records.
Schmilco is a mostly acoustic record, but that doesn't mean it's a tame one. It bears neither the vicious, fuzz-glam guitars of Star Wars, nor the dazzling, baroque-ish arrangements that fans have come to expect. But in their place is a spaciousness and chaos that might feel welcome after 20-something years of enjoyable but now-familiar Wilco releases.
Available exclusively through independent retailers such as ourselves, this limited edition LP is pressed on pink and white vinyl.
